About Kakkanad

Kakkanad is a suburb and major urban center in the eastern part of the Kochi metropolitan area, serving as the administrative headquarters of Ernakulam district and is one of Kerala's major information technology and business hubs. Located about 10 km east of central Kochi, Kakkanad is home to major technology parks, including Infopark and SmartCity Kochi, as well as several government institutions and educational establishments, and houses multiple industrial projects including the Cochin Special Economic Zone and KINFRA.

Historically a cluster of villages surrounded by paddy fields and wetlands, Kakkanad experienced rapid urbanization from the late 20th century onward, with the establishment of government offices and the growth of the information technology sector transforming the area into one of the fastest-growing parts of the Kochi metropolitan region. The transformation has created a well-balanced blend of employment hubs and residential communities, attracting professionals, families, and investors seeking a blend of urban convenience and Kerala's serene landscape.

Kakkanad, home to InfoPark and SmartCity, continues to attract professionals from across India, and the presence of global companies and start-ups has spurred demand for nearby housing, especially modern apartments and premium flats. Kakkanad offers apartments at an average price of ₹6,350 per square feet, with 2 BHK properties ranging from ₹49.98 L - 88.1 L and 3 BHK from ₹75 L - 1.5 Cr.
